Three-time Grammy-nominated hard rock heavyweights and platinum-selling band Killswitch Engage– Jesse Leach, vocals; Adam Dutkiewicz, guitar; Joel Stroetzel, guitar; Mike D’Antonio, bass; and Justin Foley, drums – are pleased to announce their new album THIS CONSEQUENCE. It arrives February 21 via Metal Blade.
The band has also shared the video for first single “Forever Aligned.”
“‘Forever Aligned’ is one of those songs that is not just about us as humans, our love, and connection, but that connection to the unknown, the greater power, the universe, or God,” explains Leach. “It feels like a really good first song to release not just sonically, but lyrically, as it is all about connection. The device of the world we live in could use a lot more connectivity.”
Regarding the album, Leach continues, “‘This Consequence’, to me, is the combination of everything the past five years has thrown at us as a band, as humans, and society as a whole. This album is just as much about everybody and their stories as it is for me about my journey personally. Sonically, I love the combination of everybody’s ideas and contributions on this album. It feels more like a collaboration than the past few records have been. When all is said and done, I wouldn’t change anything about this album.”
He finishes, “I think it’s the exact record we needed to make. I’m honored and proud of what we all were able to create and refine through this music and message.”
